  It may be due to this (and also my issue which was on AMD, may be due 
to a reboot where I didn't enable the iommu). If that is the case, the 
error handling could certainly be improved :(

  You can check to see if there is an IOMMU available by looking for the 
APCI DMAR table:

   acpidump -t | grep DMAR

later,

Peter.
